If you are talking about an existing backup created using Orbit's Backup+
then, unless you have a listing which shows the relationship, there is no
way to restore by job number. A crude workaround for future backups would be
to include an appropriate listspf as part of the backup job's $stdlist.
Provided you keep the $stdlist in some form, you'll be able to manually
determine which "O" file(s) to restore.
